U-Turn – Review

September 1, 1998

Many great camera angles, loads of props to nod knowingly to yourself over, and a story line that, when all is said and done, amounts to squat.

The Man Who Knew Too Little – Review

September 1, 1998

Wallace trips apologetically through violence, passion, and intrigue, flubs his lines a showdown and asks to reshoot, and never takes a bit of it seriously.

Scream 2 – Review

September 1, 1998

“An encyclopedic knowledge of premium-cable history and the ability to make up new slang words simply aren’t enough to maintain success in Hollywood anymore.”

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation – Review

September 1, 1998

Throbbing music plays loud & steady. Most of the bad, um, things have extra arms, heads, legs, or stuff that makes things freeze, blow up, and other cool shit.

L.A. Confidential – Review

September 1, 1998

One of the most intricate plots in recent movie memory (which I won’t even try to recount here), and like any good film noir, it’s thick with atmosphere.

In & Out – Review

September 1, 1998

As the characters come to terms with Howard’s gayness, the pace picks up and funny turns hilarious. Rewind the “moment of truth” and laugh yourself stupid.

Grease – Review

September 1, 1998

America has always been nostalgic about the 1950s. There was American Graffiti, Happy Days, and perhaps the quintessential ’50s epic, Grease.

Boogie Nights – Review

September 1, 1998

Boogie Nights is, on the whole, an assiduously ardent portrayal of the rise to prominence and penetration into the mainstream of pornographic film in the 1970s.

An American Werewolf in Paris – Review

September 1, 1998

London was goofy and quirky and seemed unselfconscious, Paris is intentionally funny, and while it elicits chuckles and snorts, they’re resented in retrospect.
